Linda Comeau, LMFT

Linda Comeau is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Connecticut with 30 years of experience across outpatient settings and inpatient psychiatric hospitalization. Trained in family therapy from a systems perspective, she has supported people of all ages through concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship struggles in personal and professional contexts, parenting challenges in biological and blended families, grief and loss, emotional abuse, codependency, the effects of medical and addiction issues on family members, and major life transitions.

Before shifting into clinical practice, she worked as a public school teacher for nearly two decades. Her academic background includes a B.S. in Education from the University of Connecticut (1973), an M.S. in Education from Central Connecticut State University (1976), and an M.S. in Counseling with a focus on marital and family therapy from Central Connecticut State University (1992).

Her clinical work draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She emphasizes practical strategies such as effective communication, healthy boundary setting, realistic expectations, self-care, and strong social supports to help people restore balance in their lives.

Linda describes her style as warm, positive, and strength-based. She finds it rewarding to work with people who are ready to explore change and to support them as they develop new attitudes and behaviors. Throughout her career she has valued the learning that comes from each person she has worked with, and she brings that experience to her therapeutic relationships.
